So the slowed the labor down so contractions werent so close together. No more induction meds from then on, yet I didn't need them I was progressing really quickly on my own. I was at 8cm by 6am. Then by 9 we began pushing I pushed for 2 hours with no progress, I have a flat pelvic bone so he was just not fitting through, his heart rate kept dipping so I was scheduled an emergency c-section. I ended up having him at 11:58 am on Thursday. :-) He's a big ol boy, 8lbs 8 oz. 21in long. He is in nicu right now because he inhaled a very tiny bit of his bowel movement and other liquids in his lungs. He's doing great though! Should be out tomorrow if all tests come back okay. :-) I'm doing great moving around quite a bit. We 3 should be going home on Sunday."

That sounds terrifying! Glad it all worked out!!

He is doing good. Still the lack of sleep and everything else Tiffany and I are still adjusting to, not going to lie, some of it sucks. haha But he is awesome.

It just means you get to give him hell later down the road

There will be times you're staring at the wall at 3AM, maybe with a cup of coffee in your hand, maybe not...but your mind will be blank and sleeping.

It actually works that way sometimes.

It sucks, but you'll be fine, never forget that.

It will get better around the 4-5 month mark as he will likely be sleeping through the night then. Just soldier these first few months out!

...of course then he'll start teething and will wake up in the middle of the night every now and then, and you'll start losing sleep again.
